Chapter 1586 The Third Winner
"Intel" has made a move. When the outside world originally thought that today's search engine battle would end in a draw, an unexpected event occurred again.
"Intel" announced a contract signed with "gg1e", which stipulated that "gg1e" would launch a new search engine technology, and this new search engine technology would fully support the "e1" processor for comprehensive optimization.
Of course, there is no problem with this contract itself, and it is normal for the business world to combine strong forces. Just like the alliance between "inte1" and "Microsoft" back then, "Microsoft"'s operating system has optimizations for "inte1" processors, but no optimization for "md" processors. Although "inte1"'s competitors are extremely angry about it, they have no choice but to swallow their anger.
And this time, the contract signed by "inte1" and "gg1e" is more perverted than the previous contract between "inte1" and "Microsoft". In this contract, there is an agreement that this new search engine technology of "gg1e", in addition to fully supporting the "inte1" processor, will also attack "md", the only competitor of "inte1".
Of course, this kind of attack does not mean that computers equipped with "md" chips cannot log in to "gg1e", but that when computers equipped with "md" chips use the "gg1e" search engine, their search degree and accuracy are greatly reduced compared to "inte1" chips. For example, using the "inte1" chip, it only takes seconds to search for something, while using the "md" chip takes at least 5 seconds, and the accuracy will be much worse.
Inefficiency! ——will become the endorsement of the "md" chip.
This is a rather despicable contract. If it is executed in this way, I am afraid that in the next few years, "inte1" will further expand its market share by relying on this cooperation with "gg1e". And within the sphere of influence of "gg1e", network users who suffer from the "inefficiency" of the "md" chip will be greatly disappointed with "md" and can only throw themselves into the arms of "inte1".
Once this contract was announced, it caused an uproar. This is no longer a normal business practice, it has violated the law of reasonable commercial competition. For a while, leaders from all walks of life around the world have pointed their spearheads at "gg1e" and "inte1", angrily denouncing the two companies for unfair competition, and have expressed their hope that the US Department of Commerce will severely punish this matter to serve as a warning to others. After all, this kind of thing has a very bad impact. If it is not severely punished, it will inevitably have a serious impact on the US economy in the future.
Although monopoly brings huge profits, it also brings lifelessness. It's like a pond of water. If there is no inlet, then the clearest pond water will eventually rot. This is the truth that running water does not rot, and door hinges do not rot. The US economy has been able to maintain the envy of other countries in recent years. The vitality of the US financial sector has been able to surpass the global economy.
Therefore,
This kind of unfair competition must be absolutely eliminated!
However, it is very strange that, compared with the separation of the outside world, as the only victim of this matter, that is, Lin Feng, unexpectedly remained silent. Once this contract is announced, it can be said that it will cause great harm to both "inte1" and "gg1e".
For example, the stock price of "gg1e" has suffered a heavy blow, from the original 4 US dollars, it has fallen straight to US dollars, which is not far from the US dollars predicted by Lin Feng. At the same time, the stock price of "inte1" has also suffered a sharp decline, and its market value has plummeted by US$100 billion in an instant.
And this downward trend has not stopped!
In this case, why did "inte1" announce this contract? This contract that is beneficial to "inte1" and has no harm, why did "inte1" announce it? ——Lin Feng couldn't figure it out. It can't be said that "inte1" likes me and wants to help me!
Lin Feng couldn't figure it out, and Larry Page of "gg1e" couldn't figure it out even more. This contract was originally requested by "inte1", and "gg1e" didn't agree with this plan at first. However, thinking of the aggressiveness of "Baidu Yahoo" and the huge pressure from Lin Feng, Larry Page and Sergey Brin finally agreed to this contract after holding a shareholders' meeting to discuss it. Anyway, in the industry, everyone has signed similar clauses that violate the Fair Competition Act. "gg1e" will not be the first, nor the last.
But Larry Page did not expect that "inte1" would actually make it public. This made Larry Page unable to accept it for a while. He didn't know what "inte1" was doing, and actually made this contract public.
Just as Larry Page was about to call and question "e1", he made a declaration. The declaration claimed that "inte1" was extremely guilty about this contract. After signing this contract that violated the Fair Competition Act under the influence of interests, he has always felt deeply guilty. After thinking it over again and again, he decided to make this contract public and accept the condemnation and supervision of the government. To prove the principle and purpose of "inte1"'s fair competition. At the same time, "inte1" also stated that it would accept all penalties imposed by the US Department of Commerce for this matter.
Hiss~~, a wave of anger spread in the financial world, sweeping the world like a rainbow setting in an instant. No one thought that "inte1" would put such a paragraph in his apology, and he would take the initiative to announce the contract without anyone noticing, while benefiting himself. This openness has been recognized and appreciated by the industry.
For a while, "inte1" received rave reviews. Although the outside world still criticized "inte1" for its move, it has declined and cannot become a trend. The stock price of "inte1" is also recovering rapidly.
clever! ——Lin Feng couldn't help but clapped his hands at this moment. Originally, Lin Feng had been thinking hard about the reason for "inte1"'s move, but after Abby Cohen told Lin Feng a piece of information--the power to buy "gg1e" stocks came from "inte1", Lin Feng finally thought. Understand it all.
"inte1" does this for no other reason than for one goal - "gg1e". I'm afraid "inte1" has also seen the profits and influence of the search engine market and wants a piece of the pie. But "inte1" is a hardware maker after all, and unlike "Microsoft" who can create a god and easily intervene in this market. Of course, even if it is as strong as "Microsoft", it will encounter many blows when it re-enters this market after missing this opportunity. Therefore, “inte1” understands that if it wants to enter this market, it cannot rely on brute force. Sometimes, money can't solve all problems.
Therefore, after careful calculation, "inte1" formulated a plan, a plan to plot against "gg1e". It's just that "inte1" has no chance. However, the struggle between Lin Feng and "gg1e" gave "inte1" a chance. The subsequent financing of "gg1e", unconditional financial assistance to "gg1e", various acquisition plans, and helping it solve the problems faced during various acquisitions are all plans of "inte1".
Finally, when "gg1e" was listed and the battle with "Baidu Yahoo" was at stake, "inte1" threw out this fatal contract, causing "gg1e"'s stock price to plummet. If the stock price of "gg1e" drops to less than US$1 and does not improve within half a year, then according to the contract signed between "inte1" and "gg1e", it will be able to obtain about 5% more shares of "gg1e". Counting the shares "inte1" has previously acquired on the market, it will own 9% of the shares of "gg1e", which is almost equivalent to controlling "gg1e".
Therefore, Lin Feng thinks “inte1” is very powerful. Such a vicious move of "sleeping on the fire and tasting the courage" almost made "gg1e" irrecoverable. At the same time, “inte1” has also gained popularity in the market. The market has been criticizing the inte1 chip for a long time. It uses the advanced technology in CPU chip processors to deliberately suppress its opponents and raise prices. It can be said that although the inte1 chip is still in short supply, That's because consumers don't have a better choice. But once consumers have better choices, it will be different. But this time, after "inte1" experienced this incident, his image has greatly changed.
This time the "Contract Gate" incident can be said to be "inte1" that kills two birds with one stone.
And can today's "gg1e" turn around? ——Larry Page, who couldn't find any way to deal with the situation in a hurry, could only watch the "gg1e" stock price finally fall below the US dollar.
At the final close, although the stock price of "gg1e" stayed at $95, which was higher than the opening price, it was obviously too low relative to the positioning of "gg1e" itself. Especially when "gg1e" has successively acquired so many companies and continued to invest a large amount of funds, this stock price is too low and too dangerous.
The wolf is gone, but the tiger is here! ——Lin Feng sighed softly.
Today's winner is neither "Baidu Yahoo" nor "gg1e", but "inte1"!
